Form & Verdict
0-10 but put up one of his better efforts when runner-up over C&D (good) last September; probably needed the run when well held over 1m here on his reappearance last month and he could be dangerous back in trip; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces.

Stamina issues over hurdles and happier back on the Flat when coming away with Voodoo Bay over C&D a week ago; is 5lb better off today, which gives her every chance of turning things round for a yard in good nick, but she's 0-17 under both codes.

Both wins have been gained at this track (6f/7f, good to firm) and he made a bold bid when runner-up here two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off 1lb lower than for last success and she's a key player.
